Avicii Bled to Death from Self-Inflicted Cut – TMZ

Ololade Adeyanju/
Entertainment website, TMZ, has claimed that Swedish DJ Avicii died due to massive blood loss from a self-inflicted wound.
The magazine quoted “sources privy to specific information about Avicii’s death”.
Avicii, whose real name was Tim Bergling, was found dead in the city of Muscat, Oman, on April 20.
Last week, his family penned an open letter saying the 28-year-old “could not go on any longer and wanted peace”.
The letter described Avicii as a “fragile artistic soul and a sensitive guy not made for the machinery he ended up in”.
It also said Avicii “truly battled thoughts about the Meaning, Life, Happiness. Now, he could not go on any more. He wanted peace”.
In the days following his death, it was revealed that Avicii had been in a committed relationship with Czech-American model Tereza Kačerová, and was a doting step-father to her young son.
Despite a meteoric rise to success following the release of hit-single Le7els in 2011, Avicii announced in 2016 that he would not longer perform live, following years health problems caused by stress and alcohol abuse, as well as severe anxiety.
A recent documentary, ‘Avicii: True Stories’ shed light on the extreme pressure he was under, performing 320 shows in a single year.
In the documentary, Avicii, a self-confessed introvert, speaks frequently about using alcohol as a crutch to be able to perform, drinking every day during his hectic tour, and to help him with his crippling anxiety and stress.
At the age of 21 he was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis – a potentially life-threatening inflammation of the pancreas – due in part to excessive drinking.
In 2014, Bergling was again hospitalised and forced to have his gallbladder and appendix removed.
Avicii made a fortune during his short career, cashing in $28million in 2014 alone, earning $250,000 a night when playing out sold-out shows, according to GQ.
Avicii himself was less bothered about his millions, saying in 2013 that he “noticed straight away when I started making money, that I don’t need that much money”.
